SGJ Podcast #230 – Star Traders: Frontiers

Fight Fight Fight Fight!

Welcome to this week’s episode of the Podcast, my friends! This week, Jim, Hunter, Spaz and I sit down with Andrew and Cory Trese of the Trese Brothers to discuss the latest (and third game) in their long-running Star Traders series, Star Traders: Frontiers. For this episode, we talk a lot about mobile gaming (which is what the Trese’s first worked on years ago), pen and paper role playing games (which they made before electronic games), Kickstarter (from which they made $20,000!!!) and the ins and outs of being an indie developer. It was a really, really fun conversation that was also very enlightening!

Next week on the show, we’ll be recording at a different time (Noon Pacific, Tuesday) because our guest, the developer of the amazing Orbital Racer, is in Central Europe! Yay! If you have any questions or comments on this episode, feel free to drop them below, email us at hail@spacegamejunkie.com or hit us up on the forums.
